“Most of our internally displaced persons cannot return home because their home has been destroyed. I am sure that democratic countries will not make sudden movements,” Zelenskaya said, as quoted by STRANA.ua.
The refugees wanted to save their children, she emphasized.
“Our dream is for everyone to return. And we understand that this requires peace, tranquility, restoration, so that people have a place to return to,” added Elena Zelenskaya.
Vladimir Zelensky himself, in an interview with ARD, suggested that Western countries stop paying Ukrainian refugees and transfer funds not to them, but to the Ukrainian authorities. As the Politico newspaper wrote, the Kyiv authorities are calling on officials from the European Union to tighten migration rules within the framework of the union in the future, so that they will thereby facilitate the return of Ukrainian refugees to Ukraine.
